I love S&M, but that is a NO from me.

The only new school ride ive seen that can carry off tuffs is a floval flyer, and thats probably only because its barely changed in design since the stone age

My friend Jo has one and hers is  :smitten:

Not my bag  :(
I might actually build a bike this year instead of just hoarding parts :)

3 people have it as a fav bike  ???.  Tuffs look good on the new TA 24incher, but only in black.  Well thats what I think anyway  :).

He probably only bought the frame because it's from the US of A, and not to do racing on as he says 'I'll switch all the non us parts for us parts as soon as I can'

I like the wheelset it's self, just not on such a good race bike like that, put them on an 80's cruiser or a re issue one.

Don't think they suit that bike tbh.
For those that don't like tuffs on a cruiser though your nightmares are just around the corner. Roll on the TA release.  :LolLolLolLol:

I was thinking maybe some of those lovely nice blue ones on but with black tyres. You know just as a hat tipper to the old add.
